Mothers can do everything to save their child's life. Many animals act in the same way, this is what is called "maternal instinct". Moreover, the story of this young mother attests the power of this instinct in women.

The maternal instinct

Researchers in Tokyo used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to study the brain structures of 13 mothers, each of whom had a baby about 16 months old.

First, the scientists filmed the babies who were smiling at their mothers. Then the women left the room, and the babies were filmed crying and asking their mothers to come back. All the babies were dressed in the same blue top for the shoot.

The scans were taken as each mother watched videos of the babies, including his, with the sound off. When a woman saw images of her own child smiling or upset, her brain patterns were significantly different than when she looked at other children. There was a particularly pronounced change in brain activity when a mother saw pictures of her own child in distress.

The scans suggest that particular circuits in the brain are activated when a mother distinguishes the smiles and crying of her own baby from those of other infants. The fact that a woman reacts more strongly to a child's crying than her smile seems "biologically significant in terms of adaptation to specific demands associated with child care," note the authors of the study.

As a testimony, the story we present to you shows once again how far the maternal instinct is able to go, and what a mother can do for her offspring.

The courage of a young mother

In the small community of Wyoming, in the state of Illinois in the United States, everyone knows each other. And whenever news falls, everyone hears about it. In fact, the story of Shelby Ann Carter and her daughter Keana Davis, born in January 2017, made a lot of resonance in Wyoming.

Shelby was working as a beautician and she was starting to study pharmacy. The birth of Keana Davis brought a lot of joy to the family. But unfortunately, all that was going to change.

One day after Shelby's 21 years, the unimaginable happened. Shelby was spending time at home with her granddaughter when suddenly the house caught fire and she had to call 911. She told them that she was having trouble breathing, but she omitted details about her child.

Arriving home, the firefighters could only wonder why she had not mentioned the child. Maybe she knew that by the time they arrived, it would be too late. They found Shelby on the second floor of her house asphyxiated by carbon monoxide.

After extinguishing the flames, the firemen found Keana Davis. Apparently, Shelby had tied her daughter to a baby car seat and threw her out the window. It was the only thing to do to make sure his child stayed alive.

The local fire chief commented, "I guess it was her maternal instinct to protect her child, we all wonder why she did not try to go out after the baby."

What about Keana?

The doctors said that Keana was totally unscathed, which meant that Shelby's idea had worked. It's really remarkable considering the fact that she thought about it in a short time. Thanks to this ingenious idea, Keana can now live by being grateful for her late mother.

After leaving the hospital, Keana was entrusted to her relatives to ensure her education.

Even though Keana could not meet her mother, she will still be very proud of her.

After the incident, local residents raised money to help rebuild the burned house and raised about $ 40,000 in just one week. It has been very helpful for the family, and their neighbors have done a great job of showing solidarity in these difficult times.

This incident only reaffirms the fact that a mother would do everything to ensure the protection of her child. Shelby will always be considered a heroine and will have a place in everyone's heart in the city of Wyoming. Mothers always put the safety of their children first, even before their own lives. Feel free to share the story of this brave mom.
